Hi,
For the Trackable.*.dll could not be found errors, these are usually just follow up errors thrown when one project in the dependency chain failed to build. In your case is the Trackable.EntityFramework project. You can ignore those errors.
The real error seems to be a path too long error. Easiest way to fix that is to simply move the solution into a shorter path, or rename part of the path to make it shorter (eg. rename Bing-Maps-Fleet-Tracker-master folder to BMFT).
That did the trick. May I suggest to reduce the name of the folder "Bing-Maps-Fleet-Tracker-master" to simply master in the package.
The zip name is auto-generated by Github as "{repository name}-{branch name}". We have no control over this.
I am closing this issue. Feel free to re-open if you run into further problems.
